Seen on the Ford Evos (Mustang) concept were a set of LED headlights (pictures below). LED headlights are becoming the new 'thing', Acura and Mercedes already have LED headlights in their flagship luxury sedans, the RLX and new S-Class, which just goes to show the direction the industry is heading into in the not too distant future.

How possible is it that the 2015 Ford Mustang production model will have a LED headlight setup much like it's Evos concept?

Possible that LED headlights will be on higher trim Mustang's like the GT, GT500, Shelby GT500. But I also wouldn't be surprised if none of the 6th generation mustangs get this technology since most of the production vehicles that have it are $60,000 and up and the highest trim 2013 Mustang MSRP is just under $60,000.

i like the "look" of the led but the range of light and visibility is my biggest concern. I think this will probably remain in the concept stages. Unless they could put those LEDs behind projectors than that is a different story. But more money on the table.

Just what i thought, if this happens, it's higher end mustang's or the highest trim mustang and LED headlights will just be an option available by it's self or in a package.

And hopefully every other 2015 mustang model will get projector setup, it bothers me when car makers still sell a $25-30k+ car with projector-less headlights.

A setup like the RLX is probably what it's going to be like but as seen in the pic's above the individual LED projectors (if you want to call them that) will be closer together. Maybe not as intricate as the RLX

I think the price of these LED headlights will scare me, any good quality LED headlight or tail light setup will cost you a lot. I've seen some retail for as low as $600-700 a set and up to $2000.

I think for the time being these LED headlights will remain concept. They are lacking a few fundamentals like turning signals and I doubt those will illuminate to a far distance compared to projectors. They look similar to the headlights on the Acura NSX concept.
